INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF MISS CULLENS ALMSHOUSES We report on the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 31 December 2025 which are set out below 

This report is made solely to the charity's trustees, as a body, in accordance with Regulation 8 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2005.  Our work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity's trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an independent examiner's report and for no other purpose.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity's trustees as a body, for our work, for this report, or for the statement we have made. 

Respective Responsibilities of Trustees and Examiner 

The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts.  The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act)) and that an independent examination is needed. 

It is our responsibility to: 

- Examine the accounts (under section 145 of the 2011 Act); 

- Follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners (under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act); and 

- State whether matters have come to our attention. 

Basis of independent examiner's report 

Our examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners.  An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records.  It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, seeking explanations from you as Trustees concerning any such matters.  The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently we do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts. 



## **Independent Examiner's Statement** 

In connection with our examination, no matter has come to our attention: 

(1) Which gives us reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements 

* to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act; and 

* to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act have not been met; or 

(2) to which, in our opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
